Strut top bearing
#2
In short, anything that looks worn out!  The top mount (06 "Shock-AB Bracket" in the diagram below) can need replacing as well.  It's essentially a form of bush.  Check for any splits in the rubber between the main body and where the shock bolts through it.

Top mounts and bearings are sometimes sold together.  If you find a deal on both then may be worth considering but a decent top mount isn't cheap.

If the rod protector (03) has any damage to it then that should be replaced.  The rest should hopefully be fine.
